Absolutely informative and very professional ππΌππΌππΌπ
It absolutely all applies to the street.. great information!
dude how do you not have more subs, Your videos are really good man.
Love this video! Especially Arai lick at lean demo. thanks .
Love your channel! and that you reply to comments. Bikes Dogs COFFEE. You are. Awesome keep them coming. Thank you.
I appreciate the time you took to shoot all these different angles and different backgrounds to make this a smooth video. I donβt lose attention so easily
Cool channel, I like your sense of humour! I am looking to do more bike track days and enter a few races this year on my 675 over here in the UK. Be interested to see maybe a vlog of you teaching another rider, especially if they are making there way through the novice/inters stage, think that is more relatable, there seems to be a lot of video's talking about "1st time on track" but not so many about 5th/6th time if you see what I mean. Look forward to more content!
Always great info! And always entertaining π
lol ur dogs like βwhat is bro yapping about?β¦β when you did the yoda voice ππ
Didnβt realize how much pressure you put on your wrists. Good info!
I made a conscious effort before the season ended last summer to be constantly aware of what my hands are doing. With so much going on and basically information overload of my brain I am getting to the point of being able to regularly remind myself to have "lighter hands". I am hoping to sooner rather than later be able to "open up more band width" in my brain by learning enough for some skills to become an unconscious effort. Not sure if that all made sense but, basically get good enough to think less about what I have to do and more about the feedback the bike is giving me..... .....the look on your dogs face when you used the Yoda voice was great. π€£ Thanks for the video and keep yourself safe! ππβ€οΈπ Randy
Loving the content ππΏ
Thanks
When the season starts letβs see some track day vlogs. Nice work so far.
From the onset of my track day riding, I was taught the "screwdriver" approach to holding on to the grips. Made sense! It wasn't until 6 months later that I heard or it dawned on that this was to be "in the corners". I must have looked pretty cool (not) trying to screwdriver hold the grips around the whole track. Glad you pointed this out!!
Hold on with your legs, not your hands! π€π This also cures speed wobbles better than a steering damper... the wheel wants to go the right direction, as long as it doesn't have the monkey fighting it and causing oscillations lol... Even still a 20 min session at the track is utterly exhausting lol... I need to do more cardio! Haha
Iβve ran into bit of a snag. I posted in your how to transport to track video mentioning about injury. Back story is; I had bled my front brakes few days before and went to practice spot. My speed was probably roughly 35; Set up for right turn (streets), just as I was about ready to dip in, inadvertently opened throttle with palm, basically stabbed front brake causing front to dip, back wheel popped up and flung me off, injured my right shoulder enough where had to take year-year and half off from riding. Got back into it last year and not had courage to go into twisties because confidence level is nonexistent now especially in right turns. I usually use my index/middle finger to squeeze level, ring and pinky lightly on throttle, more or less pushing down with outer palm (below pinky). When I do that, my thumb tends to float up. So perhaps the stag is more due to fear of repeat crashing as did before or something. Bit frustrating though. So would the index/thumb meeting/closer together and using remaining fingers on level lower the chance of accidental throttle roll on?
Excellent as always, thank you Dean! Very true about the handgrip. Especially for right hand corners when applying gas. How/When do you use the rear break?π
Glad you decided to sell the lawn mower and keep doing videos!
